Dumbbell Behind Back Finger Curl
The behind-the-back finger curl with a dumbbell in each hand; each hand rolls its own handle from the fingertips back into the palm.
How to do it
Setup
Standing, a dumbbell in each hand behind the thighs, handles across the fingers, palms facing back.
Steps
- Let the handles slide down to the fingertips.
- Curl the fingers to draw them back into the palms.
- Squeeze the fist shut for a moment at the top.
Common mistakes
Bells turning in the fingers: keep the handles level. Bending the elbows to help: arms stay long. Opening so far the bell falls: keep the tips hooked around the handle.
Breathing
Exhale on the curl, inhale lowering.
